L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Re-Plumping Gel Wash

I really liked this gel wash. I tend to shy away from face washes as they can irritate my skin or give me small breakouts. I was very happy to see that my skin thrived using this. Firstly it smells really nice. Not sure how to describe but not that soapy smell (although does still taste soapy if you get it in your mouth). I used a small amount and it lathered easily. Once washed I found my skin felt soft, moisturised and clean. My skin looked healthy and refreshed. After using for a week I noticed my skin wasn't as dry and had a nice glow to it. I'm excited to continue using in my daily routine.

The cute purple tube looks lovely and is very functional. The cap is sturdy and the upside-down tube means there will be no product wastage.

After a couple of weeks use my skin is absolutely plumper and smoother, and I like to think less saggy ha!

There's a scent to the product, but its not over-fragranced.

I did find my skin a little dry when using twice a day so I've been using this just at night and I love it!

I would definitely look to repurchase and would recommend to friends.

I was so excited to try this product the hyaluronic acid. In my mid 30s I really need to focus on anti aging, yet also consider the combination skin (some dry, some prone to break outs). This product is great for anti aging and dry areas, while I've not had the opportunity to use it for long, I love the smooth feel of my skin after use. My skin feels firm and hydrated, with no detrimental impact on break outs. You don't need to use much, and it smells great. I like knowing there is science behind it and I'm looking forward to seeing the long term effects, I feel I can trust this product with what I have seen so far (about a week).

Definitely cleanses well and feel the hydration afterwards which is nice as some cleanses csn leave a tight or dry feeling. Not sure if I noticed a huge difference in my skin as such. Did find it a little blotchy red after cleansing but didn't feel tight or irritated. Would continue using and probably would recommend to others to use too. Might see a bit more improvements after using it a bit longer. Also has a nice smell to it .

Being 38 I have been looking for a decent cleanser for my ageing skin. I was using another brand but it was too drying and harsh on my skin, so I decided to give this one a go. Well, I can say it has really made a difference to my skin. It’s not overly fragranced and doesn’t sting my eyes if I accidentally get it too close to them. Once rinsed off, my skin feels nice and soft, not tight and dry. I would definitely recommend this product and will continue using

This is an effective and pleasant to use cleanser. My skin felt super clean without being dried out. It also doesn’t have a strong fragrance which is a big tick for me. I haven’t personally noticed any “plumping” affect and I’m somewhat sceptical about whether a face wash can reduce fines lines...time will tell!

I started using the L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Re-Plumping Gel Wash as per instruction in the morning and evening, but noticed that it dried out the skin on my face rather substantially, so reduced the frequency to once a day. The packaging is very appealing, and product size seems generous. Smell is pleasant and unobtrusive, consistency of gel is great (not running of your hand when applying). It foams up for easy distribution on the skin, and washes off easily. I might have to use it for a longer time frame to see a benefit, but can confirm that my skin does feel smoother.

The bottle arrived, well packaged, and it's cute, but I did notice that it is quite thin and the base quite narrow, so it would often tip and fall off my cabinet, which is a bit of a design flaw. As for the product, it's average, I don't love it, I don't hate it, it doesn't lather much and after washing the process of rinsing off with water makes my face feel slippery, which just made me want to use more water than usual. I didn't notice anything different before and after, but I also didn't have anything negative to say, so would I buy it again? Not really, but I'm not against using it, it just didn't do anything for me.

This cleanser is around 17 dollars. The size bigger than expected. 150ml. The cleanser is part of the "Revitalift" line. I have used the Revitalift serum laser x3 and I am still currently using the Revitalift laser x3 night cream. It is nice to have a bit of a set now as I do tend to use different brands. The cleanser is transparent and lightly perfumed with a fresh somewhat invigorating scent, a little goes a long way. It does foam up and make bubbles as there are sulfates in it. Part of its claim is: "skin is deeply cleansed " so for me this ran true in the sense that it removed oil sebum and makeup well. Hyarolonic acid which is apparently in this product, for skin its function is to help hold moisture and water / hydrate, protect and prevent the skin from getting dry. Truthfully for myself the sulfates in this product seemed to dry my skin out. It felt tight and firmer but that was because after cleaning my skin was in need of hydration. While Hyaluronic acid is an ideal thing to use in your skin ritual, I cannot quite support the idea of it in a cleanser because the product does not get left on your skin long enough to really help. If it were a mask, serum or moisturizer I think I would be more inclined to recommend this cleanser for the hyaluronic acid additive. Over cleansing strips the natural acid mantle (protective layer) from the skin and for me this is what I think happened with repeated use I did notice my skin felt firm and tighter but a bit dry. According to the back of the cleanser "Loreal have been committed to a world without animal testing for over 30 years" this is news to me as I have always noticed Loreal being at the top of the list for testing products on animals. As I suspected, further research tells us the company do fund animal testing of their finished products in China, where the practice of animal testing is required by law. Anyway that said back to the actual cleanser, following the first few uses my skin was not too dry I think this one for me to use when alternating between my trusted one. Some one with congested oily skin might enjoy this cleanser and it does provide a very clean feeling without scrubbing and buffing that happens with exfoliants as this cleanser does not have any exfoliating granules in it. On the other hand if you have very dry skin and are looking for a hydrating cleanser I would be careful with this one or choose a creamy cleanser instead. Too much hyaluronic acid is also known to cause reddening and inflammation. In short, this is not a love for me but it was nice to be selected to try it. Over a longer period of time better results may happen & I will update if that is the case. I will use this one to remove make up, when my skin is very oily and in between exfoliating - as it is not a good idea to over exfoliate either.

First things first, packaging! There was no excess packaging with this, no boxes or stuffing. Just the tube of product in a delightful purple! It comes in a 150ml tube, which given how little you need to use should last a good while.

The scent of the gel is quite floral, but definitely not overpowering. Quite light and not offensive in any way. It is very easy to use, a small pea size amount in the hand and massage over a wet face. This worked ideal for me as part of my morning shower routine. It foamed up to a silky, dense foam lather that removed my eye make up easily. Quick rinse under the shower head, and done!

There was no tightness or dryness after use, just a clean fresh feeling. After a few days use, I feel it is an effective cleanser. However, I did not notice any plumping or feel any hydrating qualities as claimed on the packaging.

Whilst I would recommend this as a nice cleanser, I would not recommend it for it's stated benefits.
